Decided on a trailer..(Options) We finally decided to pick up a 28' enclosed trailer. There were only a few available and the prices were inexpensive to outrageous. Obviously the outrageous ones were completely finished and ready to roll. We're going to add a few things over the next week or so and would love to hear some input. What did or would you guys add to your trailer to make it a second shop at the track?
Right now were doing....
white vinyl walls
2 large recessed lights on passenger side
Diamond plate runners with dark gray ozite carpet between
Cabinets up front on top
Work bench/computer station(data logging and programming)

When I bought my 28' enclosed the prior owner had the entire floor and 10" up the sides RhinoLined. Also, dont forget all the pitpal goodies. Air Compressor and Generator are musts. Fluorescent Lighting is a must, the white vinyl walls will be great, keeps the light in.
I have wooden ramps in my trailer. I pull the car up on the ramps and it's a breeze to tie down. Lots of room. I can change the oil, tranny fluid, changed a bad shifter cable at the track once 
You can do all kinds of stuff under there
I'll take some pics later.
I would lose the carpet and install tile. Carpet would tend to get pretty dirty "oil, tranny fluid, gear lube, etc. after awhile. Mine has tile and it cleans right up after spills and what not. Stuff happens.
Wench, generator, air compressor. etc.

Same as most of the guys said, except I did not put any floor cabinets. I used all hanging cabinets. More room for fuel jugs, golf cart, compressor, gen, BBQ ect. I made a cool fold down bench for a data recorder area and keeping records ect. We use a big fold up table under the canopy for a food & eatting area. Good luck.

Those extras you want to add sound perfect. Here is a pic of one my friend just picked up the other day.
It has the fluorescent lights on the inside and the two recessed lights on the outside plus some cabinets and workbench.
